Spoken word is alive and kicking! Wayang Kata III on 7 March, 2007

Excerpt from British Council Malaysia website:
This March we’re welcoming not one but two (!) poets to KL. First up, we have Jacob Sam-La Rose - poet, writer, playwright, performer and educator.

Described as “the backbone of the London poetry scene", Jacob worked alongside Roger Robinson (here just last month and read at Night of the Living Text) and Malika Booker (who was in Malaysia last November and performed at Wayang Kata II), to help establish Malika’s Poetry Kitchen, an adult writing workshop and community.

To find out more about Jacob, click here or visit www.jsamlarose.com.

Don’t miss this opportunity to see Jacob while he’s in town from 7 to 11 March!

WAYANG KATA III: AN EVENING OF SPOKEN WORD
Wayang Kata returns with a fresh line up to include Jacob Sam-La Rose alongside several Malaysian writers and poets.

Jointly presented with the Troubagangers (the joint collaboration of Tan Sei Hon, Azmyl Yunor and Jerome Kugan's Troubadours and Jasmine Low's Doppelganger Open Mic Gigs), this event has grown in popularity with fans of spoken word and newbies to the local poetry scene. Come and be converted!

Date 7 March 2007
Venue No Black Tie, 17 Jalan Mesui off Jalan Nagasari, KL
Time 9.00p.m.
Admission RM5 at the door
